1777 September 30 (Tuesday). Not having success yesterday in my Endeavours to Send Mr. Jarvis’s Horse, I rode out again to day. Went up to Mr. Joseph Grouts — Capt. Jonathan Fays. Dined at Mr. Elijah Hardys. Visit Capt. Benjamin Fay who is very ill of Fever, Dysentery and Gravel. Discoursed and pray’d with him. No success about the Horse.
At finishing this Month, May I be the more humble by the Reflection etc.!
